Wow the libertarian House Freakdom Caucus is really losing their shit (ALERT Art trained morons: Figurative Language, I mean they are exceedingly upset and irritated, not really having uncontrolled bowel movements...) over the Trump budget deal:
The Freedom Caucus took an official position OPPOSING the budget agreement.

Our country is rapidly approaching $23 trillion in debt. We should be negotiating a responsible budget that serves taxpayers better—not raising spending by $323 billion with no serious offsets.
Trump getting a lot of criticism from this disgraced libertarian faction of the GOP ...
If that additional $300b over the two year cycle is just the discretionary thats another $150b per year AND another thing (a bit under-reported) about the 'Deal' is that it PERMANENTLY eliminates the 'Sequestration' cuts which was the only thing really threatening the big automatic appropriation transfer payment programs like Social Security, Medicare etc; which just based on the retirement demographics is going to create massive increases in leading fiscal flow over the next 2 years...
So Mike is currently tracking this year fiscal as UP 7.03% at a +$268B so far; we may be looking at realizing this same magnitude of fiscal increase (+7%, +$300b) for the next two years if they ink (ALERT Art trained morons: Figurative Language, I mean if they vote to approve the 'Deal', not really spilling ink on a piece of paper...) this thing next week...
Hopefully the 'Deal' gets approval and appropriations to match and then they don't do anything else for 2 years... just do NOTHING else... we then may be able to enter into a nice 2 year period of a sort of 'benign neglect' from these people...
